She Offers The Sacred Wine, So Drink! : “This oracle comes with guidance for you. Are you having fun yet? Well you may need to wash your hair and tend to your actions – that is fine. You may even need to count your fingers and toes. But over and over again, beloved? Surely you can find some time, in between the endless to-dos of your to-do list, to throw a tantrum and come dancing with me instead? Your honour and commitment, discipline and focus, are certainly to be rewarded – with some uninhibited nonsense, hopefully. Come, put aside that seriousness for a moment or more, and allow the wild child in you to take your body and soul for a spin. Together, let’s go and paint the town the colour of love.”
O wine giver of enlightened hearts!
Offer me the wine of your kindness,
for this is the reason you have brought me here
from the desert of oblivion!
O beautiful wine giver!
Pour me the wine that gives me insight,
offer me the wine from the Sea of Love
and fill my heart with pearls.
Pour it into my heart,
until I shred the veil and go beyond reason.
My spirit is consumed by judgement,
and my life is reduced by thoughts.
Pour that precious wine over the frozen cries of skeptics,
until their words become warm,
and their nays become yeas!
~ RUMI
Beloved, you are being offered. Gift that is beyond your understanding. This gift is from the hand of the Divine Beloved, an offering to you that will lift you beyond what you have known into the next opening of your inner eye, of your heart, of your soul, so that it may caress the earth with the light of heaven.
This may sound wonderful. Indeed it is! Yet welcome though this gift may be, there is a trick to receiving it, you see. When the sweet wine is offered, you must drink, but also, be willing to get drunk! You must be willing to let go of your control. You must trust in what will happen, trust that you will be cared for, or that you may appear to be the fool. You must be willing to not have all the answers (or any answers at all, my wise soul mate), and trust that this is according to the higher plan and not some inadequacy or error.
So will you accept the gift that is coming to you, the offering that the sacred feminine brings to you now? It is sweet wine she offers. It shall be an enjoyable journey receiving this gift, a wearing away of resistance and restraints towards life through the sheer pleasure of aliveness without thought. Oh what a journey this is to be for you! So much that is truly wonderful and incredible, sacred and extraordinary awaits you, you who are asked to drink from the generous cup the Great Beloved is bringing towards your lips. So come, put aside that seriousness for a moment or more, and allow the wild child in you to take your body and soul for a spin. Together, let’ Go and paint the town the colour of love.
Now together, let’s honour and accept this blessing and message with the following ritual:
Bring a glass of water/ juice/ liquid of your preference, and place your hands over the glass and say:
“All things emanate from the Divine Beloved, and the Divine Beloved lives in all things. In this sacred nectar, I receive the gift of love from the Divine Beloved. I sip, I drink, I partake of the sacred gift offered to me now. I place my mind aside and choose instead to bear witness to what is offered now, through the gift of grace. I ask for assistance that I may remember what it is to play and to find the joy of living, the delight of my path, and the humour of life. Bless me with such grace. So be it.”
